Truly Agreed, 2016

190.265. 1. In order to ensure that the skids of
a helicopter do not get caught in a fence or other barriers and
cause a potentially catastrophic outcome, any rules and regulations
promulgated by the department of health and senior services pursuant
to sections 190.185, 190.241, and 192.006, chapter 197, or any
other provision of Missouri law shall not require hospitals to
have a fence, or other barriers, around such hospital's helipad.
Any regulation requiring fencing, or other barriers, or any interpretation
of such regulation shall be null and void. 2.
In addition to the prohibition in subsection 1 of this section,
the department shall not promulgate any rules and regulations
with respect to the operation or construction of a helipad located
at a hospital. 3. Hospitals
shall ensure that helipads are free of obstruction and safe for
use by a helicopter while on the ground, during approach, and
takeoff. 4. As used in this
section, the term "hospital" shall have the same meaning as in
section 197.020.
